In the second round of the UEFA Champions League stage, Nottingham Forest lost to ZhongJetland 2-3 at home. After the game, Nottingham Forest coach Ang Postkoglu was interviewed by TNT Sports.

■About this game

Postkoglu said: "It's really disappointing. The goal we lost in the first half was really bad. It made the opponent play very comfortably, this is a microcosm of our last few games, and we disappointed ourselves at the critical moment. At the critical moment, we did not show the same desire and determination as our opponents. This is not an organizational issue, but we lost the chain in those moments."

■Whether Murillo's injury is the original for the first record of the Sino-Jetland.

Postkoglu said: "No."

■ About Murillo's injury

Postkoglu said: "I'm not sure, I haven't seen it yet."

■ Regarding possible penalty kicks in the first half:

Postkoglu said: "That will only cover up my disappointment in the way the team handles critical moments. We can't let the referee's penalty determine the outcome of the game, we shouldn't have gone to that point, we should have handled it better."

■About whether there is a regression:

Postkoglu said: "I don't know. Progress is winning, and we didn't. Our game is really exciting sometimes, but you have to keep winning, and that's what we will always try to do."

■About Forest fans singing "You'll be off tomorrow":

Postkoglu said: "I heard it. They are fans, they want to see the team win, and they have the right to express their opinions. In football, there is no What surprised me again."

■About the future

Postkoglu said: "I can only keep going. There is no place to hide in this sport. I have to look up and recover. We have a tough battle against Newcastle on the weekend."

■About whether the players do not approve of their coach

Postkoglu said: "I saw no sign that they do not approve of it, or are unwilling to execute what we discussed."
